Relationship between cytokine gene polymorphisms and acute rejection following liver transplantation.
Acute rejection (AR) recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) is one of the major complications that leads to chronic graft dysfunction. It has been reported that the polymorphisms in some cytokine genes are associated with human liver allograft rejection. This study mainly investigated the associations between polymorphisms in the genes encoding interleukin-10 (IL10), transforming growth fa...
متن کاملLack of association between thrombosis-associated and cytokine candidate gene polymorphisms and acute rejection or vascular complications after kidney transplantation.
BACKGROUND Acute rejection episodes and vascular complications are common after renal transplantation and have negative impact on the long-term patient and graft survival. We investigated whether the risks of acute rejection, thrombosis, infarction and graft loss could be predicted based on the presence of functional polymorphisms in the genes of the coagulation and endothelial inflammation cas...
متن کاملAssociation Between Cytokines and Their Receptor Antagonist Gene Polymorphisms and Clinical Risk Factors and Acute Rejection Following Renal Transplantation
BACKGROUND Acute rejection (AR) after renal transplantation affects both patient and graft survival. There is growing evidence of the genetic association between cytokine or its receptor antagonist and AR in solid organ transplantation. The objectives of this study were to investigate the role of recipient TNF β, IL-10, IL-1β, and IL-1 receptor antagonist (ra) gene polymorphism, as well as trad...
متن کاملAcute Rejection Following Cardiac Transplantation
Nine patients have undergone cardiac transplantation at Stanford University Hospital. Three of these showed no clinical evidence of rejection and had essentially normal physical and phonocardiographic findings. There were eight distinct early rejection episodes in the other six patients. Early rejection was accompanied by decreasing QRS voltage, an early diastolic gallop, and frequently a right...
متن کاملRelationship between cytokine gene polymorphisms and recurrent spontaneous abortion.
Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA), defined as three or more sequential abortions before the twentieth week of gestation. Some studies have led to the awareness that immunological factors play an important role in establishing a successful pregnancy. The aim of present study was to investigate the relationship between RSA and polymorphisms of cytokine genes coding for TNF-α (-308 G→A, -238 G→...
